Of course he did, but proving it is a different story (he said "I dont recall")

Still, the Stione verdict (Chron - when you gonna bump that thread?) breathed life into the issue again, obviously. So now the House panel is seeking GJ testimony to support an Obstruction charge

https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/18/politics/house-investigating-trump-lying-to-mueller/index.html

In the real world, not the legal world, Trump OBVIOUSLY lied in his written answers. Stone's trial proves that as does the Manafort sentencing, apparently, which is precisely what the House is seeking to have released

"But the House hasn't been able to see what Manafort told the grand jury, which Mueller apparently described in his report. In the Mueller report, grand jury details are redacted related to a sentence describing Manafort speaking with Trump after WikiLeaks' first release, in July 2016.

Manafort's "situation shows so clearly that there is evidence, very sadly, that the President might have provided untruthful answers and this is a key part of the impeachment inquiry," Letter said Monday in the last words of his arguments to the three-judge appellate panel."

No guarantee how the Judge rules, but how is this for a quote:

"Judge Judith Rogers on Monday expressed skepticism about the Justice Department's reasoning for withholding the Manafort information from the House now.

"Why wouldn't the department favor giving this information because arguably it would show he did nothing wrong? The House would not want to return a charge where the evidence didn't support it," she said about the impeachment inquiry. Another judge on the panel, Thomas Griffith, questioned why the House needed the information. And the third judge, Neomi Rao, whom Trump appointed, asked whether the courts should be involved in releasing information to the House that could influence an impeachment investigation."
